As a leading company in the event-driven orchestration industry, we make it possible for engineers to leverage their microservices, containers, or code to build event-driven serverless workflows in a cloud native platform. And the future is promising, as we have a special statement from our CEO & Co-Founder, Wilhelm Wonigkeit:
Having your cloud orchestration tool at odds with your configuration management solution can be…problematic. 🙄 But you shouldn’t have to give either of them up just because they aren’t syncing the way they could. The potential is there, and that’s why you keep the hope alive, maybe making a few complaints (or snarky comments 😬) here and there.
By now, we’re sure you’ve noticed plenty of your peers and competitors using the term “digital transformation” nearly constantly. It makes sense—in today’s digital age, without prioritizing digital transformation, your organization will fall behind the competition quickly. But with so many ways to digitize your organization, how do you know which option is best suited for your business needs, especially when it comes to IT development?
Fast. Scalable. Reliable. Automated. These are just a few of the advantages IT engineers experience when they wield the power of an event-driven orchestration platform. Event-driven orchestration instantly saves time by allowing engineers to automate workflows in response to an event or trigger. This can include workflows like:
Serverless vs. Kubernetes (K8s)… it’s quite the conundrum, isn’t it? It’s like choosing which is better: Marvel versus DC Comics. Both have their strengths, both have their pitfalls. But at the end of the day, both are epic. 🦸
Got your head in the clouds? Yeah, we know. 😏 Today, cloud infrastructure is at the forefront of the majority of DevOps and engineering teams. In fact, cloud migration is so commonplace (and rapidly increasing) that the global cloud orchestration market is projected to grow to USD 53.40 billion by 2028. Mind you, just a few short years ago in 2021, the market size was USD 13.87 billion. 🚀 With this massive growth (a CAGR of 21.5%) it’s no wonder that new cloud trends and are popping up across all industries for 2023.
You’ve likely heard the term “digital transformation” nearly every day throughout the past few years. And it makes sense. Digital transformation is no longer a nicety, it’s a must-have if you want to remain competitive in today’s modern world. The thing is, there is no one-size-fits-all way to modernize your infrastructure to meet today’s consumer and market demands. However, we do expect one key concept to become the primary driver of digital transformation in 2023: serverless architecture.
We’re living in the 21st century, so why is it that some IT engineers and architects are still using monolithic architecture to build workflows? Monolithic architecture had its day in the spotlight when it provided easy development and deployment with great performance. But now, as new technologies and innovations come to market *cough* microservices *cough* event-driven orchestration *cough* it’s clear that the path to creating high-performing, cost-effective, and secure workflows no longer lies with monoliths.
When you think of cybersecurity, you probably think about firewalls, WAPs, and securing network perimeters, right? It makes sense—these are all the tools and techniques that protect an organization from outside threats and forces. We get it, the last thing that comes to mind when you’re focusing on security is event-driven architecture (EDA). But that doesn’t mean EDA doesn’t play a part in cybersecurity. In fact, it’s quite the opposite.
